Vajrasattva Workshop

This Retreat is a perfect follow-up to the Northeast Dharma Celebration and the Empowerment of Vajrasattva.

This meditation and recitation practice is an extremely powerful method for purifying our mind and actions. Through purifying all the negative potentialities in our mind, we remove the causes of our future suffering and overcome all obstacles to a successful spiritual practice. We’ll come to experience the deep peace and joy that arises from a pure mind.

More often than not, our experience of negativity and problems in our life can feel like objective reality. Meanwhile, the lasting happiness of enlightenment often feels like an unattainable goal. Through his kindness, Venerable Geshe-la has revealed that the things we normally see do not exist. From this profound insight we can know the following:

“Attaining Enlightenment is very simple.
All we need to do is purify our mind.”
– Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche

All Buddhas specifically appear in the form of Buddha Vajrasattva to purify the minds of living beings. Through receiving the blessings of this Buddha, we can purify the negativities in our mind and begin to experience our limitless potential for a deeply meaningful and happy life.
